But they taste pretty good stir-fried with carrots and seasoned with sesame oil and salt.

I got them from the obasan (old lady) at the market who grows her own veggies. They were a bit more expensive at NT$15 for the bunch -- I thought they were chayote sprouts/dragon's whiskers at first, but they're firmer and have a bit of slime, like okra or enoki, but not as much as okra -- it's really more like enoki.

Also got these greens for NT$10 for the bunch:
Similarly delicious stir-fried with carrots!

SO GOOD. Made it at work for dinner with a VIP. I LOVE OVENS.
